Nice
Good story!
Maureen

Good story but maybe a little too long
I really enjoyed this book. I liked that each chapter was a little story about the various characters in the book (and there are many). My only complaint was that it did get a little long and tedious especially towards the end. I had to keep looking towards the beginning of the book to refresh my memory on characters. But overall worth the read, and especially enjoyable if you like historical fiction.
